Really enjoyed seeing the ‘James Paul McCartney’ special again in such good condition. I forgot how much fun the show was. (And yes, the ‘Gotta Sing, Gotta Dance’ sequence is still embarrassing, as my Lovely Linda observed, “Paul is trying too hard!”. I have to say that The Bruce McMouse Show was pretty cute, though I would have preferred a complete Wings concert sans cartoon mice. I always liked the RRS album and when this box set was announced I was hoping to purchase it until I saw what the price was, and I decided to just go with the two cd version. When the “special sale” occurred about a week ago, I jumped right on it and I’m glad I did. The only other McCartney box set I bought was ‘Flowers In The Dirt’, and that was because I got a couple of Amazon gift cards for my birthday, and I had Amazon Bonus points which I applied to the purchase, bringing the final price to around $50 with free shipping. It feels so good to save a couple of bucks!

(In reference, to my previous message with missing out on the Wings 71-73 boxset?)
(JSD & KC) A couple of days later after the pain and suffering.....It came to a happy ending......?
The $699 AU for the Wings 1971-73 boxset, was refunded....Then I checked on their web site (Discrepancy Records), they had (only) one copy of the indidvidual WWL & RRS Archive releases left
So then I gave Paul (Donavan) from the company, a phone call...He apologised for 71-73 boxset, and then I mentioned my interest in the individual archive releases Yeah, he said go for it, and even gave me a $125 AU discount for both albums....So from $699 for the 71-73 boxset, I paid $525 AU for the WWL & RRS Archive Releases....A saving of $174 AU
Late yesterday I picked them up....WWL Serial No: 03272, and the RRS Serial No: was 04596
It mentioned that individually the albums are limited (deluxe) editions?......Oh well, so much
for others wanting to purchase them later?
I will send a photo, when I get a chance..
